Tranquill didn't adequately replace Gay last season, IMO. He damn sure can't replace Bolton. Lots of athletic 'backers in the draft this season - hopefully we can manage to relieve Tranquill in 2026 with one of 'em.
Tranquil dropped off the face of the earth last year and he will be 30 this season. If he's starting next year, then that's bad news. [Reply]

No, I mean people would bitch about any LT that's not a top 3 guy. People acted like OBJ was the worse LT ever. [Reply]

Oh he will be.
I'm looking for a replacement in 2026. We have another year of him next season. [Reply]

Yeah, fans were unreasonably “bitching” about the fact the Chiefs were forced to play a career guard at LT last season since all three of the actual LT’s on their roster were unplayable.

They tried to sign OBJ long term, but idk what really happened there. What else were they supposed to do? [Reply]

They've bitched about every single LT since Brandon Albert. The only year they didn't since then was 1 year of Eric Fisher and that had more to do with Patrick Mahomes than it did Fisher's play. [Reply]
